Program overview
A one year graduate certificate in technology project delivery, covering agile and waterfall method, scope and risk, vendor management, technical stakeholders and a co-op work term.
Read this carefully against the general project management certificates Sheridan runs elsewhere: framed as information technology it is aligned, framed as business it is not.
Graduate Certificate - Project Management - Information Technology is taught at Sheridan College Trafalgar campus in Oakville, a public Ontario college. The IT project management certificate sits below degree level, so a work permit depends on its field of study. Sheridan records the IT project management certificate under CIP 11.1005 and lists it among its PGWP-aligned programmes, which supports a permit of up to one year. IRCC alone decides, so verify 11.1005 against the current eligible list before paying for the IT project management certificate. Ontario also requires a provincial attestation letter before the IT project management certificate can support a study permit.
Entry to Graduate Certificate - Project Management - Information Technology is a completed undergraduate diploma or equivalent at 50 percent or above. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0, and tuition for the IT project management certificate is recorded at CAD 17,136. Sheridan charges a CAD 100 application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the IT project management certificate. The IT project management certificate lists six entry windows across September, January and May, the earliest in January 2027. Apply Study Visa manages your the IT project management certificate application, the deposit, the offer, the attestation letter and the Canadian study permit as one process.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: A completed undergraduate diploma or equivalent, at the percentage stated.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0; TOEFL iBT 88 with 21 in every section; PTE Academic 60 with no component below 57; or the Duolingo English Test at 115.
- Application and deposit: Sheridan charges a CAD 100 application fee. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
- Scholarship: No scholarship is recorded against this programme. Budget the full tuition.
- Additional requirement: Sheridan offers an International Entrance Scholarship of CAD 3,000 toward tuition. Awards are limited, so budget the full fee regardless.
- Work rights: Sheridan lists the IT project management certificate as PGWP-aligned under CIP 11.1005, supporting a work permit of up to one year. Verify the code against the IRCC list before paying. A PGWP also requires a language test at CLB 5 in all four abilities for college credentials, taken within two years of applying. This is separate from the English test you need for admission. No dependant work permit.
- Study permit: Apply Study Visa prepares the attestation letter request, the financial evidence and the Canadian study permit submission with you.
